18.01.2022 Thank you for the interest, support and inspiration regarding our post last night. Lots of Questions and Comments and this post will address what we can. A bit ...of constructive criticism has come back to us, which we welcome and this post will answer those. We have summarized the points raised instead of responding to each one individually. Firstly, the ABC news reported the Queensland Governments response. Lets see what the Acting Health Minister Leeanne Enoch had to say in defence and in return our response follows each point: 1. Acting Health Minister Leeane Enoch said that the bulk of the contract went to Lactalis, whose national office is based at the Pauls milk factory in South Brisbane. Answer - We say It is not relevant where the foreign owned companys headquarters are located. It is not a Queensland owned company that was a cornerstone of the Queensland Governments "Queensland for Queenslanders" policy of buying local. 2. "The Palaszczuk Government knows the importance of supporting local providers wherever possible," Minister Enoch said. A: We say wherever possible could have included breaking up the tender into pieces and giving them to Queensland owned Businesses. It was a sitting duck in terms of ease for the Queensland Government to award this tender to Maleny Dairies and a combination of Cheese and Yoghurt Makers if thats what they wanted. 3. The successful contractor was the only tenderer able to supply the full range of full and low-fat products required including milk, cheese and yoghurt, to meet the dietary standards and varied requirements of patients. A: No it wasnt. Also, she doesnt say that the tender openly referred to welcoming new products, different sizes and sourcing from other suppliers if you couldnt supply. We wouldnt have tendered if it was a one stop shop. 4. "Theyre also the largest milk processer in Queensland and the biggest buyer of raw milk in Queensland." A: It was never about the biggest. We were told 100% Queensland owned business 100% operating in Queensland 100% purchases from Queensland suppliers 100% employees in Queensland. That was their new Government Policy. 5. The Government said less than 3 per cent of the contract was being filled by Lion Dairy for a very niche product that only they produce, used in some patient diets. A: Ohwas that for the Chocolate Custard Snacks and the Flavoured Long life Milk and the Skim Milk (which is basically white water)? What special needs diet is that?? No we dont do that. Other locally owned processors could have produced this. 6. "Due to the volumes and complexity of some contracts, larger suppliers are often required to fulfil these requirements," a Government statement said. A: The volumes arent 5% of our business and we already drive passed every hospital every day in our delivery trucks. We could have done all the Full Cream and Low Fat Milk a lot of the custard and Yoghurt and outsourced the cheeses to local companies who need increased sales as much as we do. Below are responses to common themed questions: 1. What is it? - We lost the chance to supply milk to the Metro North Hospitals including the Royal Brisbane and the Prince Charles hospitals for a 2 year period with a three year option to renew. 2. Queensland Health said we could not supply that quantity and that they were looking for a one stop shop - That is 2 lies not 1. Firstly if they wanted a one stop shop then why would they award the tender to two billion dollar multinationals companies, not just one. Secondly a huge part of the tender was about proving that we can supply quality dairy product from delivery times and locations through to volume throughout the year. The whole of the tender represents no more than an extra 5% more business to Maleny Dairies. We could have done their volume in our sleep. 3. Why are we carrying on like pork chops over it? Thats business move on! - Not quite. If the Queensland Government hadnt used us all year to go to events supporting their campaigns about buying local we wouldnt have even tendered. We told the Government if it was about price then we cant compete. We were encouraged not to worry about price and put the tender as being a 100% Queensland Company was now very important. Putting that tender in was very expensive. We think we have every right to carry on because we werent even going there in the first place. 4. What about the Queensland Farms with Parmalat and Lions? What about the Queensland employees working for their livelihoods. - Great Point. Lets talk about that. We want all Queensland farms to win but it wont be with multinationals and that is our own personal opinion. The 90% (estimated) of the 1500 Queensland Dairy Farms operating in 2000 were with those 2 companies. Today Maleny Diaries cant count 300 Farms in Queensland. In 2000 we supported 1 farm now we have 11 farm suppliers with their extended families. The winning bidders bring up more and more milk from southern states each year in the hundreds of millions of litres. Nevertheless, the main point is the Queensland Government was about 100% Queensland owned business. 100% Queensland farms, 100% Queensland employees. Lactalis and Lions are NOT Queensland owned companies. It was the Queensland Government who made this about supporting Queensland owned business not Maleny Dairies. We would rather they had said nothing then we wouldnt have tendered or said boo and it would have been about us moving on to other potential opportunities.
